Amperex apparently still builds tubes in France. Penta was originally a
couple of guys who came from Eimac. Penta was eventually bought out by
Machlett/Raytheon, who later lost interest. Currently, "Penta" is
allegedly built in China by political prisoners and petty criminals.
Serious criminals are used for "parts". .
